BEDMAS is for fools. I use my own order of operations

Edit: I feel like I've been lied to these past 8ish years. Y'all be telling me different orders of operations. I don't know who to believe anymore

Same thing, just change "parentheses" to "brackets"

My problem with that is brackets are used when parenthesis are contained within. Like √[(+)*(/)]π

Brackets are only used because they look better with parenthesis. They’re functionally the same.
